ARTS5 – Year 9 Dance & Visual Art – 1 Semester

Dance

This course is for everybody who loves to move, not just those who consider themselves a ‘dancer’. 

We are designed to move our bodies and this course is as much about learning to dance as it is about learning through dance. Discover how to make epic dances in groups by being introduced to tools from the dance curriculum. Learn about different countries and cultures by stepping into classic and contemporary dance styles performed by groups of people around the world. 

Negotiating with others, moving your body, experiencing different styles of music and expanding your creativity are all core components of this course. No prior experience required and fun guaranteed. 

Visual Art

This course allows students to explore their curiosity and skills in Visual Art. Students can explore the Art Department's media and resources. Students will grow their confidence at drawing and expressing themselves. In the Art Department you will have fun using the skills of listening, watching, researching, thinking, drawing, talking, and growing friendships with like-minded Art students while trying out many exciting new materials and how they work.
